CLEANLINESS IS NEXT TO CARCINOGENIC

E D ~ J 9 ~ l lWhere reWeWhen

It i s i r r e fu t a b l y axioma,tic in the l a t e 1970 s t h a t apathy i s rampant,

The l a s t pre s iden t i a l e l ec t i o n unders tandably evoked a r ecord low response

from the e l ec t o ra t e and the Lexington mayoral compet i t ion draws i n t e r e s t o f ap

proxamately the same magni tude.

Except fo r sporad ic reg iona l developments t h e re has been a minimum o f p o l

i t i c a l ac t i v i t y of any shade post-Vietnam. Most p o l i t i c a l l y o r i en t ed e n t e r t a i n ment having erupted onto the boob tube without so much as our compliance.

But occass ional ly a top ic or even t b e l i e s an undercurrent of ab id ing con

cern on the p a r t of a g rea t number o f persons and prope l s them i n t o s p i r i t ed

ac t ion . Thus we see the pros and cons engaged in f ev e r i sh confron ta t ion over the

ERA; Kent St a t e s tuden t s campaign fo r a symbolic rememberance o f dead compad

hazards ; and unemployed men and women p ro t e s t i n g the inequa l i ty of a system t h a t

l eaves them out in th e cold.

Closer to home t he re have been a t l e a s t a couple of i s su es which have s t i r r e d more than a mild degree of a t t en t iveness .

Tops on the list i s the Army Corps of Engineers plan to des t roy the wonder'

land t h a t i s the Red River Gorge and rep lace it with a yacht ing club. Nothing l e s s

than blun t , decis ive c i t i z e n ac t ion ended t h i s f i a sco .

The n there was the Lexington Civic Center which caused g rea t hardsh ip to

poor persons and s tuden t s in t h e i r displacement fo r what i s now black top . Unt i l

the cour t s so jud ic ious ly revoked a l l the r i g h t s of the d i spossessed t h e re was a

good deal of p o s i t i v e involvement in r e s i s t i n g t he c ru e l ac t io n of the l o ca l

p o l i t i ca l establ i shment .

And in l e s se r numbers people have responded to a mult i tude o f other p o l i t i c a l

i s sues and movements from coopera t ive l i f e s t y l e s to t he r i g h t s of the handicapped.But non e of the aforementioned, or perhaps ever mentioned i s su es ranks on t he

For c l a r i t y sake l e t us once more touch upon the fundamental components

of cogent oppos i t ion to nuclear power. Let it s ink in fo r a moment. It ap p l i e s

in th e most d i r e c t sense to you.

he re most types o f energy sources now func t ion ing have t h e i r p o l l u t an t

e f f e c t , none compares to th e extreme p o l l u t an t s emit ted y a nuc lea r r eac t o r .And t h i s i s compounded i n f i n i t e l y by the severe safe ty hazards .

**By the most conservat ive U.S. Government es t imate a nuc lea r r eac t o r acc iden t

could cause 14 b i l l i o n in proper ty damage, k i l l 3,300 people immediate ly , i n j u re

45,000, cause 45,000 f a t a l cancers and cause gene t ic d i seases fo r f iv e genera t ions .

**Even t he c l ean es t r eac t o r produces a r ad io ac t iv e ef f luen t (was te) which remains

a deadly and everpres en t hazard fo r thousands of yea rs . There i s no i n f a l l i b l e

way to dispose o f t h i s waste . It a l so may be used qui te e a s i l y to b u i ld bombs.

**The water requ i red to cool the r eac t o r i s re tu rned to its source a t g rea t e r

he a t l eve l s c rea t in g eco log ica l havoc. And the water i s contaminated by minute

r ad io ac t iv e p a r t i c u l a t e s .



And if the sa fe ty problems weren ' t enough the re are enough other f c ~ s to

prove conclus ively the need to dump t h i s boondoggle.

**Nuclear power i s high ly cap i t a l in tens ive . It c rea tes few jobs for the dol -

l a r s spent . Many more jobs would be crea t ed fo r them same expendi ture on cons t ruc-

t i o n of a plan t using foss i l fue l s and espec ia l ly one coal . The negat ive

e f fec t t h a t nuc lear power wi l l have on Kentucky 's coal indus t ry i s inest imabl@.

But s ince the u t i l i t i e s have t h e i r f inger s in every power they go where the

p r o f i t i s not where the jobs are .

**The dangers of sabatoge to a nuclear p l a n t wi l l presen t the need for ana t iona l s tanding pol i ce fo rce for i n s t a l l a t i o n pro tec t ion . This has al ready

been author ized by Congress a t . the behest o f Pres ident Car ter . This same fore@

could be used fo r other , l e s s obvious purposes in i t s general area of deployment.

And it could conceivably be used to r e s i s t a populat ion t h a t d o e sn ' t want atomic

power.

**I t i s a c l a s s i c example of the r i c h ge t r i ch e r . The most p ro f i t ab l e indus t ry ,

u t i l i t i e s , and a l l i t s var ious r e l a t ed i ndus t r i e s wi l l have t o t a l cont ro l over

nuc lear power and i t s p r o f i t s and could t o t a l ly squeeze out cos t - reducing

compet i t ion . Whereas in a l t e r n a t i v e energy sources such as so la r and wind the

ownersh ip i s much more decen t r a l i zed and compet i t ive , lead ing to cos t savings

f or sonsumers.

That , in i t s bare es sen t i a l s i s the case aga ins t nuclear power and i t s

assor ted headaches. And a compel l ing case it i s .

From i t s impact on th e economy to the f ea r of p o l i t i c a l i n t e r fe re.nee in

operat ions both by the government and by determined sabateurs , to the extreme

hea l th hazards , the p e r i l assoc ia t ed with nuclear power i s unpara l le led and

v i r t u a l l y incomprehensib l e . But it e x i s t s . And if we do not shake out o f our

. malaise-or apathy-and take a s tand and ge t involved we j u s t might not have a choice

or even a voice to ra i s e in di ssen t or l aughter o r song. We may jus t be

a s t a t i s t ic of the s i l e n t bomb .

AND ITS CHEAP, TOO.
